Luther?

What do you think of the name Luther? It's on Hubby's list, but I'm not quite convinced.

Come to think of it, same situation with Cedric and Freya. Thoughts?

Yeah, Lutherans are what I first think of. And it's not really a negative association. I'm just not religious myself, so religious sounding names are a turn-off for me. Martin Luther King is a pretty immediate second though, which I think is a cool association. But I like the name Martin a lot more than Luther, sound-wise.

The whole Cedric Diggory thing annoys me since Cedric has been a favorite since before the Harry Potter books were even written. It seems to be an association that is already fading a little bit though. The other comments I get are about Cedric the Entertainer who I am only vaguely familiar with. I don't really see a comedian as that big of a negative though.

Freya is just cool because we don't see it a lot (where I am in the US anyway). I would be so, so much more intrigued to meet a child named Freya than a child named Ava or Olivia or Isabelle. And I think it's pretty too. Just my opinion though.
